"It was pretty rocky. At first. Several appoints made by Tri-State no one ever showed up.Crew showed up to install the Generator before the site survey and did not have necessary equipment or cooperation of Electric or gas company nor call before you dig had been notified. I called Tri-State to warn them the call before dig had never been preformed. They said they'd take care of it, did not happen until right before installation crew came back the second time. The first time they were here they could not have installed the generator even had they had all the parts because none of the utilities had been marked. Finally after about three months the Generac was installed and working. I had several questions that I could never get answered by calling Tri-State. One of the installation team had to come back a couple of weeks later to replace a damaged part and he answered all my questions. The guys who installed the Generac were great, the problem is your guys operation center and call center as far as I can see do not communicate very well. Anyway the generator has worked fine in several power outages this spring. I am happy right now but I live in dread something goes wrong and I have to call Tri-State for help."

"Juan was on time and very professional. Did an excellent job adding a sub panel for a generator and even correct a code violation that was found in the main box when he opened it up. The time estimate and price quot where both right on the money. He also did a great clean up job when the work was finished. Would recommend him to anyone needing some electrical work."

"Had Stagecoach RV in Peru work on RV generator, called me said circuit board caught fire and found one on an online bidding store for 909$ and some change took home to put in the pole barn. Spring comes to get RV out change all fluids fire generator up to cool down RV with ac, doesn't work. Call stagecoach RV and tells me guy who did generator quit to get a job with insurance, so I'm screwed out of 900 and my one year warranty? He said I can give you his number. (screwed) checked Angie s List and Huston Electric came up? Knew they did commercial and residential wiring did not know they worked on Rv generators, so I left to search, 10 minutes later they call me saying yes we see you inquired about work need on Rv generator. I told him all I knew and we were leaving for outer banks on Friday (this is Monday on phone) guy says bring it by tomorrow. I said I'm on a time crunch to load for a trip can I bring it this evening, he asked a guy there how late in the shop he said he would wait. I dropped off Monday evening, got call 10:15 am Tuesday we got you all fixed up someone been in circuit board area and had loose pin connector and loose connection at 30 amp breaker and straightened up wiring on board it was a mess, also looks like someone put in new voltage regulator and never adjusted it was only getting 107volts, adjusted it and all is good. I went to pick up and he said I had to look up the schematic for wiring and it brought up the whole manual so I printed it off for you and put it in a plastic binder. $285.00 out the door worked great on the trip no issues and if I need generator service again it will be Huston Electric in Lafayette"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.
